IMATRA

It was after eight-thirty on Tuesday evening in Imatra’s Vuoksenniska district, eastern Finland, when it happened, according to the regional paper, Uutisvuoksi.

A local kid, Samu, 17, was cycling toward an underpass when a person dressed in clown’s clothes appeared from the nearby hill. The clown was wearing yellow-red clothes and a mask with sharp teeth and bloody gums.

Samu went to a shock. He started running. He sat on the ground and called the emergency number.

The clown returned, holding a kitchen knife.

“I’m going to kill you!” he said.

Samu started running again. Samu called the emergency number again, asking for cops. The clown ran away.
